Legal
Terms & Conditions
The agreement that governs your use of the Zenska marketplace and wellness-booking platform — written to be clear, fair, and consistent with Philippine law.
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Zenska.ph ("Zenska", "we", "our", or "us"). They set out the rules for buying, selling, and booking on our platform.
We have written them alongside your rights under the E-Commerce Act (RA 8792), the Consumer Act (RA 7394), and the Civil Code of the Philippines. Where these Terms and your statutory rights differ, your statutory rights prevail.
Nature of the platform
Zenska is an online marketplace and wellness-booking platform. We provide the technology that connects buyers with independent, verified sellers and wellness partners. Unless a listing expressly states "Sold by Zenska", the seller — not Zenska — is the contracting party responsible for the product, its description, and its fulfilment.
Your contract of sale is with the seller
When you place an order, a contract of sale is formed between you and the seller. Zenska facilitates the transaction, payment, and dispute resolution, and enforces platform standards, but does not become the manufacturer or vendor of seller-listed goods.
Acceptance of these Terms
By accessing or using zenska.ph or the Zenska app, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Returns & Refund Policy. Under the Electronic Commerce Act of 2000 (Republic Act No. 8792), your electronic acceptance and the electronic records of your transactions are legally valid and enforceable. If you do not agree, please do not use the platform.
Eligibility
By creating an account and using Zenska, you represent and warrant that you:
- Are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into contracts
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information
- Will use the platform only for lawful purposes
Minors may use the platform only under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. Certain age-restricted wellness treatments apply their own minimum-age checks at the time of booking, based on the date of birth on file.
Your account
You are responsible for:
- Keeping your login credentials confidential
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Notifying us promptly of any unauthorized access at support@zenska.ph
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, applicable law, or the rights of others, following fair and reasonable process where practicable.
Seller verification & product authenticity
- Only authorized, verified sellers may list on Zenska
- Counterfeit goods, unauthorized parallel imports, and unapproved or unsafe products are strictly prohibited
- Applicable products must carry valid FDA Philippines registration or notification where required by law
- Zenska may request supporting documents at any time and remove non-compliant listings
Report a suspected counterfeit
Authenticity is core to Zenska. If you believe a product is counterfeit or unsafe, report it to support@zenska.ph. Verified counterfeit claims are eligible for a full refund under our Returns & Refund Policy.
Orders, pricing & payment
- Prices are set by sellers and displayed in Philippine Peso (₱), inclusive of VAT where applicable
- An order is confirmed upon successful online payment, or upon confirmation for Cash on Delivery (COD)
- Payments are processed by licensed third-party payment providers; Zenska does not store full card details
- We may cancel orders affected by pricing errors, suspected fraud, or stock unavailability, with a full refund of any amount paid
Shipping & delivery
- Sellers are responsible for accurate fulfilment; delivery is handled by our logistics partners
- Delivery timelines shown at checkout are good-faith estimates, not guarantees
- Risk of loss passes on delivery to the address you provide; keep your contact details accurate
- Report non-delivery or courier issues promptly so we can assist with resolution
Your rights as a consumer
Your statutory rights under the Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 7394) always apply and are never waived by these Terms.
"No Return, No Exchange" is not allowed
Philippine law and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) prohibit a blanket "No Return, No Exchange" policy. You are entitled to a remedy — repair, replacement, or refund — for goods that are defective, imperfect, expired, unsafe, or not as described. Full details are in our Returns & Refund Policy.
Wellness bookings
Wellness treatments and packages are provided by independent partner centers. When you book, you enter an agreement with that center for the service performed.
- Treatment suitability, contraindications, and after-care are determined by the partner's qualified staff
- Payment may be settled directly at the center (pay-at-visit) or online in advance, depending on the offer; prepaid packages are redeemed session by session
- Cancellation, rescheduling, and no-show terms are set by the center and shown at the time of booking
- Zenska facilitates discovery, booking, and — where applicable — online payment, but does not perform clinical services
AI features disclaimer
AI recommendations are informational only
- Zenska's AI skin analysis and recommendations are for general guidance, not medical advice
- They are not a substitute for consultation with a licensed dermatologist or physician
- You remain responsible for assessing a product's suitability for your skin and health
Reviews & user content
You may post reviews and content, provided it is truthful and lawful. You must not post:
- False, misleading, or manipulative reviews
- Content that infringes intellectual-property or privacy rights
- Unlawful, defamatory, obscene, or spam content
You grant Zenska a non-exclusive licence to display content you submit in connection with the service. We may moderate or remove content that violates these Terms.
Prohibited activities
When using Zenska, you must not:
- Commit fraud, misrepresentation, or payment abuse
- Circumvent platform fees or transact off-platform to evade buyer protection
- Upload false documents or impersonate another person or business
- Infringe intellectual-property rights or breach the Cybercrime Prevention Act (RA 10175)
- Introduce malware, scrape data, or disrupt the platform's operation
Intellectual property
The Zenska name, logo, design, and platform software are owned by Zenska or its licensors and are protected under the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 8293). Product images and brand marks belong to their respective owners. You may not copy, modify, or exploit our intellectual property without written permission.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Philippine law, and without limiting your statutory consumer rights:
- Zenska is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from platform use
- We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability of the platform
- For seller-fulfilled orders, the seller remains primarily responsible for the product and its warranties
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under Philippine law.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold Zenska harmless from claims, losses, and expenses arising from your breach of these Terms, your violation of any law, or your infringement of third-party rights.
Dispute resolution
Step 1 — Talk to us first
Most issues are resolved quickly. Contact support@zenska.ph and we will mediate between you and the seller in good faith.
Step 2 — Regulatory and legal remedies
If a matter remains unresolved, you may pursue remedies with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) for consumer complaints, or before the proper Philippine courts. These Terms do not limit any remedy available to you under law.
Suspension & termination
We may suspend or terminate access to the platform for violations of these Terms, suspected fraud, or to comply with legal obligations. You may close your account at any time; certain records may be retained as required by law (see our Privacy Policy).
Governing law & jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines. Subject to the consumer and regulatory remedies above, the courts of the Philippines have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these Terms.
